I'm a Winner!

I have been so lucky and won Crafty Ribbons blog hop I can't believe it!! I just scrolled down not really expecting anything and there was my name, so I am so delighted - thank you Crafty Ribbons x

My card today was made using a topper which I have never used a pre-coloured one before but I bought it a little while ago from Lili of the Valley and thought it would go nicely for the current challenge on Lili's Little Fairies Challenge which is lavender and lace:

I am really struggling to get good pictures even when it is sunny the sun is too low and just washes all the colour out not that it was sunny today when I took this! I have computer generated the sentiment and put it on a Nestie and the same with the Topper which I edged with some Stickles. I have added lace and some ric rac. The stars are cut using a Die-namics die and I have used a Memory Box for the circular doily behind the image. I have used my new Go Kreate dies for the card shape which I got at Christmas. Just added some pearls - why not?? The paper is from First Edition Dreamcatcher, I just love First Edition papers they are so pretty and you get loads in the pad, some with glitter and some with foil mmmmm delish! I'd like to enter the following challenges:

Fabulous card - the image is so cute. I think I have some lili of the valley pre coloured toppers, maybe I will dig them out! Thank you for your comments and advice re my lack of inspiration.
